As happened last month when the great Richard Thompson came back to town, anytime Los Lobos enters Maine’s borders you’re gonna read about it here. The masterful Mexican-American band has a new album, Gates of Gold, and an 8 p.m. show at Stone Mountain Arts Center (Dugway Rd., Brownfield). Tix: $95 (all ages). 935-7292. stonemountainartscenter.com. And in Portland tonight, The Telling Room’s Super Famous Writers Series presents a reading at SPACE Gallery (538 Congress St.) by memoirist, activist and poet Reginald Dwayne Betts, whose journey for social justice and literary greatness began when he was arrested and imprisoned for carjacking at age 16. Starts at 7:30 p.m. Tix: $10 (all ages). 828-5600. space538.org.
